Education

Courses and workshops

SciLifeLab offer educational courses and workshops for PhD students, postdocs, investigators and other employees within all Swedish universities.

The courses and workshops cover knowledge and understanding about the advanced techniques and data analysis methods available at the SciLifeLab technical platforms. In general the courses are aimed for researches who have not previously been aware of – or lacked access to – the technologies SciLifeLab provides. Via the courses and workshop you can learn how to benefit from SciLifeLab’s scientific resources, how to plan your projects and how to analyze your data. The workshops are usually shorter than the courses and more focused on a single subject.

Seminars

SciLifeLab hosts a number of stand-alone seminars as well as two distinguished speaker seminar series:

SciLifeLab The Svedberg

SciLifeLab The Svedberg seminar series is running on a weekly basis at the Uppsala Biomedical Center (BMC), please see the current schedule for more information. This seminar series is named after the Swedish chemist and Nobel laureate Theodor “The” Svedberg and was started in the mid 70’s. A committee invites leading scientist from Sweden and worldwide to hold research seminars within the field of bioscience. The SciLifeLab The Svedberg Seminar series is also a research course for graduate students. By attending ten seminars, one higher education credit is achieved. More information about how to attend the course can be found at the course website.

SciLifeLab has been created by the coordinated effort of four universities in Stockholm and Uppsala: Stockholm University, Karolinska Institutet, KTH Royal Institute of Technology and Uppsala University.
